Ever since Jesus was born, he has always been perfect. There have
|
|
never been any flaws that had to do with him. He had many different
|
|
characteristics and qualities that w ere unique about himincluding
|
|
holiness, purity, faithfulness, mercifulness, grac e, righteousness, love,
|
|
integrity, divinity, and courageousness.ÐThere is nothin g that is more
|
|
powerful than that of the triunity, which consists of God the Fat her, God
|
|
the Holy Spirit, and God the Son. This report deals mostly with God th e
|
|
Son, which is Jesus. Jesus has all these qualities and we are supposed to
|
|
be f ollowing in His footsteps. Most Christians try as hard to have these
|
|
great chara cteristics, but there is no possible way that we could achieve
|
|
such a goal. It is impossible for humans to reach that goal. It says in
|
|
the Bible "For everyone falls short of the glory of God.". That right
|
|
there is enough proof to show th at we are not worthy of his presence. God
|
|
is of the Spirit. He is not made of matte r and mind, and he does not
|
|
possess a physical nature. Some think that God is t hat of a human. There
|
|
is no possible way that this could be, because in John 4:24 J esus speaks
|
|
"God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and
|
|
truth.". Even though Jesus had flesh was of the Spir it he still did have
|
|
matter. He had flesh which ismatter. In this flesh was ve ry important
|
|
qualities. God still possesses all of these qualities even though He does
|
|
not have flesh. These characteristics would fit for either God the Fath
|
|
er, ŒGod the Son, or God the Holy Spirit. They all work in the triunity
|
|
and have these qualities even though one might display it in a different
|
|
manner than the other. In the thirty©three years of Jesus' life, He had
|
|
three very important characteristics that are something we all should try
|
|
and followÐ Love liness, Faithfulness, and Forgiveness. Very often when
|
|
people think of Love, they think of Jesus. In John 4:8,16 it says that God
|
|
is love. This i s a paraphrase but it is still stating something that is
|
|
very important. That v erse shows that Jesus had (and still does) mercy
|
|
and compassion for us.Another v erse that shows that God's love as apparent
|
|
is John 3:16,"For God so loved the w orld that he gave his only begotten
|
|
son that who believes in him will not perish but have everlasting life.".He
|
|
has so much l ove for us that he even gives us life. He could just let us
|
|
Christians live our own life but, He helps us out with His great grace.
|
|
Grace is part of the wh ole effect of God's love. Basically what grace is,
|
|
is way that God deals with u s. It has nothing to do with what we deserve
|
|
or basis of merit, but it is givin g out by how much we need. God deals
|
|
with them according to his goodness and ge nerosity. That seems similar to
|
|
benevolence, but it isn't. Jesus' grace is real ly shown in the New
|
|
Testament. In Exodus 34:6it says "The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and
|
|
gracious...". In Ephesians 2:7©9 it says, "For it is by grace you have
|
|
been saved, through faith©and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of
|
|
God©not by works, so that no one can boast. In those verses it Œis saying
|
|
that God is allowing us to be saved. He doesn't have to save us; He could
|
|
just let u s all go to hell, but he gives each and everyone of us a chance
|
|
to accept Him. The list goes on and on of different verses in the Bible
|
|
that shows us of God'sg race. God's grace is related to the Mercy that He
|
|
gives us too.
|
|
|
|
Jesus' mercy was his loving, compassion, tenderheartedness.He has a
|
|
very tender heart toward the need y. That is the kind of mercy that Jesus
|
|
has for ALL of us. We are supposed to f ear God and Jesus and then they
|
|
will pity those who fears them. If they did not pity us and have mercy on
|
|
us we would not be alive. They would have let us die by now. They cannot
|
|
stand to be in the sinning world that we live in. They wo uld just do away
|
|
with us if they didn't care about us. Because of all of this c are He has
|
|
for us I feel that we need to have faith in Him. If God i s really to be
|
|
true and we believe that He is, then His faith in us has been pro ven. He
|
|
is all powerful and He would never do something that could proven not t o
|
|
be true. Jesus had faith in us in many ways. His father has one big
|
|
example of faith.
|
|
|
|
This example was the time in which Abraham was to sacrifice his son
|
|
Isaac on the alter. God said that he (Isaac) would be very important in
|
|
years to come. Fi rst of all Abraham didn't believe that a son would be
|
|
sent to him, and one was. Abram didn't have faith in God but God had faith
|
|
and said that a child would co me, and a child did come. Now that he was
|
|
on the alter God relieved Abraham fro m killing his son by having a sheep
|
|
walk by in which he was commanded to sacrifi ce instead of the son. Abraham
|
|
showed Œa lot of faith in God by believing Him t hat he was right in what
|
|
he was doing. I think that that was a very brave thing by Abraham to do.
|
|
He must have had all the faith that you can in God, because in a situation
|
|
like that I don't know what I would do. If we believe and have f aith in
|
|
God and Jesus we will be forgiven of our sins, in which is another great
|
|
quality of Jesus "But with you there is forgivenessÄ; therefore you are
|
|
feared." (Psalm 130:4). If you believe in the Bible that verse should let
|
|
you know that Jesus and His father does forgive us. "O'Isreal, put you hope
|
|
in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing love and with him is full r
|
|
edemption." (Psalm 130:7) I feel that both of those verses are very strong
|
|
in t heir speaking of forgiveness. The Lord will forgive us of all of our
|
|
sins whene ver we ask for forgiveness.
|
|
|
|
This is all because of when Jesus died on the cross for our sins.He
|
|
took all of the sins of the world upon Him at that time. If He wouldn't
|
|
have been crucified we would not ever be able to go into heaven because we
|
|
would always have sin wi th us. Jesus cannot be in the presence of sin now
|
|
that he has resurrected and i s back in heaven. When our sins are forgiven
|
|
they are completely forgotten. They are thrown as far as the East is from
|
|
the West. All of these qualitie s that I have talked about are very
|
|
important but there are many more. There are numerous characteristics of
|
|
Jesus. These three that I spoke of where just s ome of the ones that I
|
|
felt were very important. I am not saying that there are ones that aren't
|
|
important, I was saying that these were three that were very important to
|
|
me. As you can see, these three qualities were things that were v ery
|
|
apparent in His life.
